Hi Everyone!
Again I am looking to all you guys for help with carseats. I have gotten such good help and advice here, thanks.
I have a Subaru 2001 Forester (not latch). I had always planned on getting a Britax Regent for my DD when she gets kicked out of her Marathon by her baby sister (currently in a graco snugride). DD is 2.5 years old, 38" tall and 40lb.
From what I am reading in the forums, getting a Regent in a Forester is tricky at best. DH is pretty darned good at installation but I don't want to try to return a car seat that won't install at all. And I won't even touch the whole Regent Fiasco that is happening now, I barely understand it.
And to make it even harder to decide, I don't want this Forester forever. Someday (maybe in a year or three) I want to have a Honda Odyssey.
So what I want to know is:
1. If not the Regent, then what? I am really want a good safe carseat.
2. Will it install in a Forester?
thanks in advance for all your help and thoughts.
